I am currently studying for a Bachelors of Fine Arts with a concentration in Graphic Design at the University of Georgia. Being a transfer student, I have experience from Georgia State University's Graphic Design program as well. Having learned from different perspectives, in different environments, with different instructors, I am able to approach design from multiple angles to produce the best work.

Goals
SMALL BUSINESS OWNER
Because I love all things artsy and design-related, my dream is to run my own small business where I design brand identities for companies, but also sell artworks that I create (almost a blend of a boutique and branding company). In a way, I have already begun pursuing this career by selling hand-made cowboy hat rearview mirror ornaments. Another dream of mine is to be a Graphic Designer for an Atlanta sports team such as the Braves or Falcons.

I am currently in my fifth year of college, and I plan to graduate from UGA's College of the Arts and Sciences in May 2023.
Since October of 2022, I have been working as the Graphic Designer at New Life, a church in Lawrenceville, GA. I am also the head of social media for the church. I am in charge of designing social media posts, slides for the presentations on Sundays, and digital signage for the TVs throughout the church.
In my free time, I make unique Cowboy Hat Rearview Mirror Ornaments for cars and trucks. I partner with 5 JUNE, a boutique in Social Circle, GA to sell these hats locally.
